The DaVinci Machines Exhibition, on loan from the Museum of Leonardo DaVinci in Florence, Italy, is one of just three such exhibits traveling the world!

Wizard World St. Louis Fans Can ‘Discover DaVinci’

While Wizard World wasn’t able to get Leonardo DaVinci to appear as a celebrity guest at St. Louis Comic Con (he’s been gone for nearly 500 years, after all), the event has done the next best thing. The DaVinci Machines Exhibition, on loan from the Museum of Leonardo DaVinci in Florence, Italy, is one of just three such exhibits traveling the world. It’s currently in St. Louis, and “Discover DaVinci” will bring a slice of the tour to America’s Center, March 23-25.

The Exhibition contains over 60 hand-crafted inventions built from Leonardo’s designs, now half a millennium old, and is the life work of three generations of Florentine artisans. They have painstakingly brought to life the creations and concepts devised by the brilliant inventor, scientist, sculptor and artist.

At Wizard World St. Louis Comic Con, Discover DaVinci will highlight “Little Leonardo,” a comic book and cartoon series based on the life and time of the greatest inventor and artist who ever lived, Leonardo DaVinci. The group will present “Little Leonardo” at a panel on Saturday at noon.

Attendees who visit the Discover DaVinci booth can take advantage of several promotions surrounding the exhibition, including the opportunity to purchase a numbered, limited edition first printing of the Little Leonardo comic book; interactive plastic and wooden models of DaVinci’s machines available for purchase; additional Little Leonardo merchandise; raffle with comic book, models and DaVinci bobblehead giveaways throughout the day; and discounted admission ticket to the exhibit.

Additionally, the first 100 attendees to purchase the comic book will receive a free lanyard at the convention.

Join tens of thousands of fellow fans as they converge on the America’s Center at St. Louis Comic Con to celebrate the best in pop culture.
